[QUOTE=Johnnsen;22557840]I won't buy this game because all "options" you have seem to result in the same. My point is not that people are getting shot without much sense, it is that it doesn't look varied or interesting.
The good and the bad path of this trailer play exactly the same, only that your target wears different clothes.
All that in a bland environment.[/QUOTE]
I suppose you're right. But i still don't see where most of these people who claim the graphics look like shit are coming from. They look pretty good to me for a postal game. Graphics come second to me in favor of gameplay, if the game looks like shit but plays amazing fun and well, i don't care.
I do like how it's running source.
Do they play that song for [I]every[/I] trailer they release?

Yeah I wasn't coming so much from a technical standpoint, I was more talking about the design. The surroundings don't exactly look interesting.
Also the only thing setting postal apart from the competition is the violence, and I don't think this looks up to date in that department either.
With Postal 2 it was amongst the most gruesome things around, today this doesn't hold up. You can play better looking games where the violence is more fun and more gory, thus voiding the shock effect as well. If you strip the violence-as-gameplay-mechanic aspect from it, not much is left.
For as long as this was in the works, its incredibly weak I think.

its not a post its a game, flopgame
I wonder if anyone says pong is a bad game because of its "outdated" graphics.
Bitchs, you can't even fucking comprehend how advanced pong is.

Try selling pong today as retail on Xbox 360 while there is a proper tennis game next to it. Read my post above, I wasn't talking so much about the technical side.
I think they fucked up going with the source engine.
The gameplay just looks awful when you look at postal 2.
That's just me though, don't know about anyone else.
I didn't like Postal 2 either. Nothing happened, got bored real quick.
[B]IT'S ABOUT TIME, RUNNING WITH SCISSORS, ITS ABOUT TIME[/B]
Finally, now I know that Postal 3 hasn't been scrapped or anything. Postal 2 was my favorite game of all time, and while Postal 3's Third Person makes it different, atleast you get to see the Postal Dude more :v:
what makes all of you think RWS makes games to make big money like EA or Activision? they don't, they make games just for shits and giggles

And so that means that...?
Remember this trailer is from 2009, they may have ported it to the l4d 2 source engine.

I also think this may be included with portal 2.
The game looks awkward, not graphics wise, it looks awkward with the animations and how people react.

Have you played Postal 2?
[QUOTE=Johnnsen;22557419]How deep. Kill these or kill those, the gameplay is the same, you run around in a giant room and shoot a group of people that look slightly different.
I remember when they talked about meaningful choices with the example of either helping or running over a person injured on the street. While that is already stupid, this seems to take it even further.
Looks bland, boring and I don't see how third person benefits the game in any way. For the time it took them to make this I'd have expected a lot more, and not just "run around and shoot badly animated people with shallow explanations plastered over it for why you do so".
Also it seems that, again, all ways are pretty much the same kind of violence, and if there is a violent free way it is boring as hell. If they would at least have ironed out the shortcomings of postal 2 (lifeless surroundings, violence gets boring quickly, not enough to do thats not "run around on the street and kill everyone", bad animations).
Pass.[/QUOTE]
what this man said is the truth.I mean how can you enjoy killing people with bad animations?You play it just because postal 2 was cool?That doesn't make any sense.
Doesn't really look all that good, to be honest.
I thought Postal 3 was dead.
Hello, people.
My name is John Florenski, I am 15 years old, and I have a very homosexual ancestry. We always would gather around on sundays and have insane incest and get piss drunk even though we are all underage. We would also get little boys (We call them Wee Scrotums) and give them a little bit of our love. We love incest, rape, fratricide, patricide, and calling people idiots.
Now, I like to prance around in women's underwear at night and sing "Skip to my Lou" while I drink Smirnof Vodka. My nights consist of going to the local gay party and having wild orgies of sex and food. I weigh 300 pounds, although I weigh this much, women find me very attractive. Or maybe those hookers lied to me...
Anyways, I love goatse. It is my life and familiy. Men's anuses stretched to oblivion are great for turning me on. I just cannot stand boobs. They are gross. Love, John.
Holy fuck is that a wolverine

That's easy, just slap on 'Call of Duty' before the name.
If they put the gore system from L4D 2 than it would look much better. They should also put something in it so you can pick things up, like poop from your front yard. You can throw poop at people AND pee on them! Then kill them with a badger and ride away on a segway!
[QUOTE=M_B;22559043]what makes all of you think RWS makes games to make big money like EA or Activision? they don't, they make games just for shits and giggles[/QUOTE]
I agree, this is what makes RWS so great.

In my opinion the graphics are fine too. Sure I have seen better but people need to consider their budget is probably not as large as more "main stream" developers. I hate it when people complain about graphics when they're ok just because they aren't as "shiny" as Call of Duty or whatever.
As long as the graphics are acceptable it's the game play that I care more about.
[QUOTE=Dr. Freeman;22558171]I wonder if anyone says pong is a bad game because of its "outdated" graphics.[/QUOTE]
Redundant, because the only reason people give games with bad graphics a bum rap is because we expect graphics in newer games to be better than graphics in older games.

Yeah this would be totally awesome!
Holy shit you can take a guy's leg and beat the shit outta them
I could give a fuck that it may not look as good as most games. It's open world and you can beat the shit out of anyone that gets in your path.
Fuck yeah.

that they don't care if the game doesn't look good to you

How do we know that they wont talk at all or have personality. The game isn't even released yet.
I like the how the game looks, but my only peeve (which was mentioned before) is that it is Third Person. I hope there will be a first person mod, or an option in-game. (also, one of the earlier trailers showed footage of Postal Dude taking a vacuum, sucking up towels covered in jizz, and shooting people in the face with said Jizz Rags. I don't know about you, but I don't think EA would have the balls to put that in CoD!) Postal is a unique series, it's not just about "Graphics & Gameplay". It's more about getting a good laugh in when you take a Badger, rip a guy to fucking shreds, take his leg, and beat the shit out of his wife.
tl;dr: Postal has jizz Rags, Badgers and Dismembered legs. Fuck Yes.
